All of the above plus the area around Teruel and luneburg heide in Germany (Aricia) So many beautiful place, it’s hard to choose…

Random Thoughts: Anthony:

I went with 45mm tires.I wish I had bigger ones,especially for Spain and Southern France.

2 by system is not really ideal in muddy conditions…

Thanks to my wife, with you I shared this beautiful but unforgiving adventure!

Thanks to Bruno who helped me repair my front derailleur system in Jokkmokk ! Thanks to him, I have finished the EDT with an average speed higher than 12km/h.

Aricia:

“Mostly non technical gravel road” (me repeating this in my head everytime I struggled)

Sometimes it feels like a long way and then it’s just a moment…

It’s great to see friendships are born so easily and naturally

I am also grateful to be able to share these moments with my partner and husband.
